1(54-1) For the Leader; with string-music. Maschil of David: (54-2) when the Ziphites came and said to Saul: 'Doth not David hide himself with us?' (54-3) O God, save me by Thy name, and right me by Thy might.
2(54-4) O God, hear my prayer; give ear to the words of my mouth.
3(54-5) For strangers are risen up against me, and violent men have sought after my soul; they have not set God before them. Selah
4(54-6) Behold, God is my helper; the Lord is for me as the upholder of my soul.
5(54-7) He will requite the evil unto them that lie in wait for me; destroy Thou them in Thy truth.
6(54-8) With a freewill-offering will I sacrifice unto Thee; I will give thanks unto Thy name, O LORD, for it is good.
7(54-9) For He hath delivered me out of all trouble; and mine eye hath gazed upon mine enemies.
Reina-Valera 1909
1Al Músico principal: en Neginoth: Masquil de David, cuando vinieron los Zipheos y dijeron á Saúl: ¿No está David escondido en nuestra tierra? OH Dios, sálvame por tu nombre, y con tu poder defiéndeme.
2Oh Dios, oye mi oración; escucha las razones de mi boca.
3Porque extraños se han levantado contra mí, y fuertes buscan mi alma: no han puesto á Dios delante de sí. (Selah.)
4He aquí, Dios es el que me ayuda; el Señor es con los que sostienen mi vida.
5El volverá el mal á mis enemigos: córtalos por tu verdad.
6Voluntariamente sacrificaré á ti; alabaré tu nombre, oh Jehová, porque es bueno.
7Porque me ha librado de toda angustia, y en mis enemigos vieron mis ojos mi deseo.
King James Version
1Save me, O God, by thy name, and judge me by thy strength.
2Hear my prayer, O God; give ear to the words of my mouth.
3For strangers are risen up against me, and oppressors seek after my soul: they have not set God before them. Selah.
4Behold, God is mine helper: the Lord is with them that uphold my soul.
5He shall reward evil unto mine enemies: cut them off in thy truth.
6I will freely sacrifice unto thee: I will praise thy name, O LORD; for it is good.
7For he hath delivered me out of all trouble: and mine eye hath seen his desire upon mine enemies.
